Applications for <br />each Agency by page number are referenced in the furthest left column. <br />We received 11 applications, totaling $61,500 (2025) and $62,000 (2026) in requests. <br />The program is oversubscribed by $13,500 and $11,800 in 2025 and 2026, respectively. <br />The 2025-2026 Operating Budget currently includes $48,000 (2025) and $50,200 (2026) <br />for grants/contributions to non-profit agencies for each respective year. Found under <br />account 101121-538420. <br />No new applicants from the previous grant cycle were received. Furthermore, three <br />previous awardees did not apply. <br />A potential recommendation philosophy could be awarding entities their request, or no <br />greater than 50% of previously awarded funding. This methodology would also include <br />$5,000 in increased utility assistance program administered by Sister Carmen, which was <br />recently approved by Council in August. $2,200 in 2026 is currently not encumbered. <br />City Council will award 2025 and 2026 funds at a City Council date yet to be set later this <br />year. <br />11/251 <br />
